Baroness Scotland of Asthal: A regulatory impact assessment has not been prepared for the Civil Partnership Act 2004 (Relationships Arising Through Civil Partnership) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/3137), because it has no impact on the costs of business, charities, voluntary bodies or any public bodies distinct from that of the Civil Partnership Act itself. A full regulatory impact assessment for civil partnership was published alongside the Act and can be viewed at www.dti.gov.uk/access/ria/index.htm#equality.

	Notes:
	1 The combined local authority (LA) and school-based expenditure includes all expenditure on the education of children in LA maintained establishments and pupils educated by the LA other than in maintained establishments, This includes both school-based expenditure and all elements of central LA expenditure except youth and community and capital expenditure from revenue (CERA) and are drawn from local authorities' Section 52 outturn statements (Table A) submitted to the DfES.
	2 Pupil figures include all pre-primary pupils, including those under-5s funded by the LA and being educated in private settings, pupils educated in maintained mainstream schools and other LA maintained pupils. The pupil data for pupils attending maintained nursery, primary, secondary and special schools are taken from the DfES annual schools census. Private voluntary and independent (PVI) under-5 pupil numbers are taken from the early years census. Other LA maintained pupils includes all pupils attending schools not maintained by the authority for whom the authority is paying full tuition fees, or educated otherwise than in schools and pupil referral units under arrangements made by the authority drawn from the Form 8b submitted to the DfES. Also included as other LA maintained pupils are all pupils attending pupil referral units who are not registered at a maintained mainstream school drawn from the DfES annual schools census. All pupil numbers are adjusted to be on a financial year basis.
	3 2004-05 data are regarded as provisional and are subject to change by the LA.
	4 Figures are rounded to the nearest £10 as reported by the LEA.

Lord Hunt of Kings Heath: We cannot accurately answer how many people left employment due to a disability, as such data are not available. However, the Labour Force Survey indicates the number of people giving up work for health reasons. This is shown in the following table:
	
		
			  People giving up work for health reasons 
			 1997 23,100 
			 1998 33,500 
			 1999 32,500

			 2001 40,300 
			 2002 29,500 
			 2003 32,900 
			 2004 31,700 
			 Total 252,800

	Notes: Health reasons may include disabilities as well as sickness, impairment and other health conditions.
	We cannot accurately answer the question how many people re-entered employment with a disability, as no data are available. However, the Labour Force Survey shows the number of disabled people in work, and hence we can calculate the increase in the number of disabled people in employment in each year. This is shown in the following table:
	
		
			  Totalnumber of disabled people Disabled people in employment Annual Change (increase in number of disabled people in employment) Disabled persons employment rate (percentage) 
			 1998 4,755,000 1,811,000  35.1

Lord Sainsbury of Turville: I chaired research items at the Competitiveness Council on 28 November. My right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry chaired the internal market and industry items, which were taken on 29 November. My honourable friend Barry Gardiner, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for competitiveness, took the UK seat on both days.
	The council recorded a number of important achievements in pursuit of EU competitiveness including: a partial general approach on the 7th framework programme for research and development (providing the basis for adopting a common position once agreement has been reached on the financial perspectives); council conclusions on better regulation that mark a real step change at EU level; agreement that we should conclude negotiations regarding the REACH chemicals regulation which was subsequently agreed at the Competitiveness Council meeting on 13 December; and recognition that significant technical progress has been made on the Services Directive during the UK presidency ahead of the European Parliament's opinion next year.
	For further detail on the council, I refer the noble Lord to my right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry's statement to Parliament, which was tabled on Monday 5 December.

Lord Warner: The proposed European Community Regulation on nutrition and health claims made on foods would, as currently drafted, prohibit claims made in the labelling, presentation or advertising of foods, which refer to recommendations of individual doctors or health professionals. The European Council adopted its common position on the proposed regulation on 8 December, with member states having signified unanimous political agreement to the proposal on 3 June.

Baroness Scotland of Asthal: Thirteen of those detained were advised that the Immigration Service was considering release on bail and invited to provide details of proposed sureties and addresses. The remainder were assessed as posing too great a risk of absconding. Six of those were subsequently invited to provide sureties and addresses and were granted bail by an Immigration Judge. The remaining seven individuals were removed.

Lord Hayhoe: asked Her Majesty's Government:

Lord Warner: National Health Service allocations in north Cumbria for hospital services in each year since 1997–98 and for general practitioner services in each year since 2004–05 are shown in the following tables. Revenue allocations are made to primary care trusts, not NHS trusts. It is for PCTs to determine how to use the funding allocated to them to meet the healthcare needs of their local populations.
	Funding for GP services and dental services has historically, with some exceptions, been held centrally and not allocated to PCTs. Funding was demand-led, with payments made in response to claims submitted by GPs and dentists.
	Following the new GP contract, the Department of Health made primary medical services allocations to PCTs in 2004–05 and 2005–06. This will become part of PCTs' overall allocations from 2006–07. Following the new dental contract, the Department will make dental allocations to PCTs from 2006–07.
	Table 1 shows the allocations made to North Cumbria Health Authority in 1997–98 and 1998–99. The department made allocations to health authorities from 1996–97 for hospital and community health services (HCHS).
	
		Table 1: Hospital and community health services allocations1997–98 to 1998–99(£ millions)
		
			  1997–98 1998–99 
			 North Cumbria Health Authority 138.0 144.7 
		
	
	Notes:
	1. It is not possible to separate the allocations for hospital services from the allocations for community health services.
	Table 2 shows the unified allocations made to North Cumbria Health Authority between 1999–2000 and 2002–03. The department made unified allocations to health authorities from 1999-2000 covering HCHS, prescribing and general medical services cash-limited.
	
		Table 2: Unified allocations 1999-2000 to 2002-03 (£ millions)
		
			  1999–2000 2000–01 2001–02 2002–03 
			 North Cumbria Health   Authority 198.9 217.8 235.5 261.7 
		
	
	Notes:
	1. These services cannot be separately identified. These figures are not comparable with earlier years which cover HCHS only.
	The department has made allocations to PCTs from 2003–04. Table 3 shows the revenue allocations made to Carlisle and District PCT, Eden Valley PCT and West Cumbria PCT for 2003–04 to 2005–06.

			 West Cumbria PCT 122.8 133.8 145.2 
		
	
	The department made separate primary medical services (PMedS) allocations to PCTs in 2004-05 and 2005-06. Table 4 shows the PMedS allocations to Carlisle and District PCT, Eden Valley PCT and West Cumbria PCT in 2004-05 and 2005-06.

			 Eden Valley PCT 6.6 7.1 
			 West Cumbria PCT 10.7 11.3 
		
	
	Notes:
	1. These allocations covered the bulk of the funding for the new GP contract, with the remaining funding for quality being allocated to the NHS Bank.
	In February 2005, the department announced revenue resource allocations to PCTs for 2006–07 and 2007–08. Table 5 shows the revenue allocations to West Cumbria PCT, Eden Valley PCT and Carlisle and District PCT for 2006–08.

Baroness Tonge: asked Her Majesty's Government:
	What compulsion is being put upon primary care trusts to ensure that extra Government funding for sexual health will be allocated to genito-urinary medicine services.

Lord Warner: The United Kingdom Government have sufficient smallpox vaccine to mount a mass vaccination campaign of the whole population.
	Our vaccine stock, is comprised of three different vaccines: vaccine supplied by the Swiss Serum Institute at unknown cost as part of a routine supply contract during the eradication of smallpox vaccination campaign; vaccine manufactured by Bavarian Nordic and supplied by PowederJect at a cost of £32 million; and vaccine manufactured and supplied by Aventis Pasteur MSD as part of an on-going contract worth in total £45.2 million.
	All vaccines are of the Lister strain, a specific requirement for the UK vaccines, and all purchases have been negotiated with the suppliers in competition with other suppliers of vaccine.
